Mt. Vernon, MO - OCH Lawrence County Clinic is now offering an ADHD and behavioral health diagnosis and treatment program for Mt. Vernon residents. The step-by-step program is designed with local Medicaid and Medicare patients in mind, and will prevent excess travel for Mt. Vernon residents due to the availability of specialized provider care.

Collaborating physicians and providers include: William McKay, DO; Salvador Ceniceros, MD; Stephen Belk, PsyD and Cindy Hollis FNP-BC. All are working together to assist in diagnosing and treating those in preschool through adolescent years with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), pervasive developmental disorders (PDD) such as autism, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), or other behavioral issues.
